[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 9110680, member: 6704184"] All of that is fine for fantasy gods in general. In D&D the gods of good literally define and exemplify for mortals what good is. They aren’t just “good from a human perspective”, they are [B]Good[/B]. Objectively, and universally. They can be flawed, sure, but when they speak on what is Good and what is Evil, they are either correct, or the cosmology entire is false. If I have to google it, that makes my point quite well, pal. Powers aren’t all gods, though. Titans specifically aren’t gods. Lol in that description sure. In others it is amorphous, in other she is feminine. 🤷♂️ Wotc era D&D isnt flexible at all about it. A demon or slaad lord isn’t a god. Well this guarantees this will be my last reply to you. I’ve very little respect for people who behave like this. Also Vecna ain’t a god. So you don’t know what nuance is. Not the flex you seem to think it is, bud. 😂😂😂 Please quote where I claimed there were none. Feel free to actually explain to the rest of the class why you think that 3 gods, only 1 of which is both masculine and of any importance at all (seriously who gives a damn about deities that haven’t been in a print product for multiple editions and decades and even people in thier 30’s and 40’s probably don’t know exist? Lol like congrats on being the most pedantic person in the room, I guess?) makes [B][I]what I actually said [/I][/B] “laughably wrong”? While you’re at it, please explain how a question challenging the state of a thing in the present tense can be proven “laughably wrong” by a bunch of pedantic and questionable examples from decades ago, most of whom can’t even be assumed to be part of the game anymore.
